Lewandowski was also accused of grabbing the arm of former Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields during a press conference last week, a charge he has flatly denied.

Trump himself appeared on ABC’s This Week Sunday, and said that he would discourage his supporters from rioting were he to be robbed of the GOP nomination.

“I would certainly tell them that, but, you know, look, these people are — are fervent. They are really — they want to see positive things happen for our country. And I would certainly say that. I don’t want to see riots. I don’t want to see problems.” Trump said, adding that there would be “a lot of very unhappy people” should he be denied the nomination by virtue of a contested convention.
